Chapter 11: Theme Song
The day before filming the performance, the participants below to the stage of the show where they would perform clean gladi first. The location of the stage was in a different place than they normally did filming.
We need a bus to get to the location. The trainee participants leave in their class trainee clothes to the clean gladi location where the stage is set first.
When they entered the location, a large, triangular stage would later have a small triangle that would be the stage on the other side. The main triangle stage is huge and looks very majestic under beautiful lighting. The main color of the lighting is red with gray accents that make it look harmonious with their uniforms later.
The cameramen will certainly not miss this activity to capture the expression of the inI trainees. This is one that will be aired later, even the clean rehearsal process is also recorded to be one of the materials to be aired.
The participants who entered the area of the building where they would be filming later could not help but be amazed to see the stage that existed. No exception to those from class F, they looked very amazed by the stage regardless of their condition that might not be going up the stage.
The staff explained the position of each class and asked the trainees per class to go up to their respective stages. “Class A please go to the main stage. Class B please go up to the stage on the right side and class C on the left side. Class D please go up to the stage behind Class A. Class F, please sit on the side for a while.”
Ava, who was held by Sophie, went on stage. On the stage there was another staff asking the trainees to line up in an initial formation. The shape of this Formation is two rows that almost form a triangle, the trainees will be lined up to extend backward.
Vivian will of course stand at the center and front of the line. While Sophie was in the middle of the line and Ava unexpectedly put in the back of the line. The two felt nothing, especially Sophie who became very excited after taking the stage. Ava herself did not comment and instead wished she had not gotten much fire. He had no intention of standing out in this theme song.
Other trainees looked towards the main stage enviously because back then, the main stage also had another small stage in the middle of the row that would rise higher for the center position. Vivian was of course happy the day of trying this position, she screamed happily while covering her mouth and looking around happily.
“Position center really becomes very visible.”
“I wish I were in that position.”
“The stage rose very high.”
“People class D behind become invisible.”
Various comments were made by other participants who saw the profitable position. They wanted this position but could no longer because it was the final decision, so all they could do was how to attract the attention of the audience later.
The staff arranged the trainees' positions in other classes before performing a clean rehearsal in one piece. They are also told how they should start and change positions when the stage changes shape.
The clean gladi was done with two clear feelings, happy and sad. The trainees on stage became happy and excited while those who had to dance below or not looked became sad. Even so, they continued to train hard. That way, the gladi was clean and they had to go back to the dormitory and continue practicing again for the next day.
On the day of the recording, the trainees who had finished breakfast, went on a bus together to their place. Before entering the set, they entered the cosmetology room and dressing room in turn. Although there were quite a number of makeup artists, but they still had to wait.
Class A is a priority for makeup artists to come first because they will have many shots while on stage. So class A becomes the first to finish their makeup and clothing first.
But a rather unexpected turn of events occurs, Ava who receives her set of clothes finds that the red vest is torn on the side. In addition, the tie is also absent. Ava who was wearing a white skirt and shirt came out of the dressing room with her suit that was her arm.
He came to one of the staff who became part of the shirt with his suit. “Excuse me, I think this vest is torn and I also do not accept a tie.”
The staff looking at the torn vest frowned and looked at Ava rather unfriendly. “Why can this vest tear?” This staff picked up and checked the vest rather unhappily.
“When I will wear it already.” replied Ava honestly.
The staff in front of him seemed unhappy, “Did you tell the truth ?!” ask her in a voice that is not small.
This small incident in order to attract the attention of the surrounding, this staff sighed in annoyance and took out other clothes that were other vest models that had materials such as sweaters. “Only this is left, just use this. Don't get broken again! No more ties, so no need to use it.” The staff gave it away in a somewhat unfriendly tone.
Ava received with a small nod without saying anything, she stepped aside and immediately used her vest sweater and suit and walked out of the room.
The trainees who were in the room became more careful with their clothes to prevent damage. The other staff remained silent and said nothing about the incident.
The staff scolding Ava secretly smiled with satisfaction while sending someone a message that the mission was over.
Ava happened to have finished doing a simple make up and had used her clothes in full. According to the direction of the other staff, he went to the area where he had to take photos. The purpose of taking this profile photo is to be used on the website for voting by fans.
Sophie happened to have just finished taking a picture, she used her aura of timidity to leave after a few photo shots. When he saw Ava who was wearing a different shirt he could not comment.
“Not, you didn't use this shirt before ?” Sophie is confused to see a different vest and there is no more tie around Ava's neck.
“Vest that I should have used was torn, it also seemed like my das were missing. They don't have an extra tie so I just go with this shirt.” Ava replied before being called to take a picture.
Ava stood in a place that had been determined in an orderly manner like going to take a photo. The photographer who will be taking the photos directs Ava to further show her character in the photos.
Ava thought for a few seconds before clenching her hands behind her back and tilting her body and head slightly without smiling. Ava showed her serious face which was unexpectedly very enchanting.
The photographer initially becomes lazy but once he sees Ava who looks like a serious student, he immediately snaps and tells Ava to change some styles. Ava just moved a little from her body and smiled slightly.
The photographer who continued to snap finally stopped and looked at some photos and nodded in satisfaction. “Oke done.”
Ava lowered. “Thank you.” Then she went over to Sophie who was waiting outside the room.
Sophie was surprised to see Ava return quickly. “Very fast ?!”
“Not really, the photographer said finished, so I came out.” Ava replied as she walked hand in hand to the main stage to wait.
“I took a photo long enough ago, it looks like you are smart enough to find a picture.” Sophie praises Ava and is interested in Ava's current style. “I guess just changed your vest look sportier now. Looks more comfortable.”
Ava nodded in agreement. “Indeed more convenient than previous vest.”
They reached the main hall where their stage would be. Quite a lot of people were in place, they were ready and seemed to be joking. Ava who saw this chose to walk to the side and sit on the floor waiting for the filming to begin. Sophie also sat down beside Ava while talking about small things.
They talked together and people who knew the two of them were like Crystal and Melody. The four talked or more places the three. Ava heard them talking to each other.
After waiting for a long time, the staff finally told them to go up to the stage and stand in a position that had previously been trained.
The coaches also come and watch the trainees who will do the clean gladi. Keegan also came in with a cool suit and her hair was neatly arranged as she was also going to do the recording as well.
Keegan stood with the other coaches and looked at the trainees who were doing the exercises before doing the actual recording. Maybe because trainees are not used to doing fun exercises, many of the trainees are not smiling and look very tense.
So the trainers who do the on-screen monitoring and directly pick up the mic and start giving advice. “You have to smile, don't be stiff, the camera will probably pass you by for only a few seconds so take advantage of it to show your charm.” said Paris telling trainees to relax.
The trainees nodded in understanding and remembered what Paris had said to them. Keegan on the other side who stood cross-legged staring at the trainees, she stared at the entire trainee on stage. But he frowned looking at the arrangement of the trainees on the main stage.
Sophie and Ava who previously became the third big entry who will be the center is in the middle position and Ava in the final. The two people standing at the center side were not even the ones who entered the big third.
Keegan quietly shifted and approached the producer to ask, “Why are the two center-nominated trainees behind ?”
The producer in question looked up at the stage and saw Ava and Sophie in the middle and back of the line. “Oh. We only give opportunities to other trainees to be more exposed.”
Keegan stared at the producer for quite a while before finally saying, “Alright.” Then he turned around and gathered with the coaches again.
When Keegan returned, she was asked to go on stage immediately. Keegan has to do some opening first before the trainees can do the theme song together.
Keegan does a long narrative that explains a bit about the trainee and does the opening very elegantly. “I'm Keegan Nielson, National Producer representative for the Unlimited Youth Girls program. Now let's meet 101 girls. Let’s start it!”
Then the camera that highlighted Keegan was like flying high and highlighted the class A participants who did the initial pose on stage. The theme song song song finally started, The girls of A class raised their heads and started choreographing while singing. Class A has been a kind of example for other classes even since practice. They take the initial part of the song up to the chorus of the song before class B and the other classes will be joined gradually.
The cheerful aura of class A trainees at the beginning of the song gives encouragement to other trainees. The sweet smile of the trainees wants to convey positive energy through the theme song. Even when the song reaches break dance, the trainees but dance vigorously and vigorously. After the break dance section, the formation of the participants became somewhat changed, the center would ascend to a higher stage while another class would approach the main stage. Class A will stand closer and further forward.
The trainees did not dare to move and were silent until the staff said it was finished. “Good, filming has finished!” the producer shouted with a loudspeaker.
All trainees on stage and below bow deeply to the staff and coaches “Thank you !”
“Good work all!” paris said with a mic congratulating her on completing the recording.
All the participants became relieved and excited after finishing the recording. The participants immediately got off the stage by telling each other happily about the recording process.
Sophie was also one of the very excited ones, as soon as she finished recording, Sophie instantly pulled Ava with an excited face. “So it was a very pleasant experience right ? Perform live and full shows.”
Ava smile. “Indeed a pleasant experience.”
“I hope there will be many people who will choose us.” Sophie has a lot of hope ahead of her. He hopes to debut through this opportunity and wants to debut with Ava. “You think after this we will do what ?”
“Either, I don't expect too much about our mission afterwards.” Ava walks with Sophie out of the show.
The trainees took turns changing clothes and preparing to return to the dormitory. Ava holds Sophie back from fighting to change clothes with other trainees. So Ava waited with Sophie first outside the dressing room area and happened to come with the other coaches.
They stopped and looked at those who still had not changed clothes.
“Why haven't you changed your clothes yet?” ask Paris confused.
“Too many trainees are still changing clothes inside. We are waiting for a turn.” Sophie replied with a shy smile.
The coaches nodded and walked by to go towards their changing room. Keegan does not follow her and the night looks at Ava seriously. “You should do your best in the next mission.”
Ava is silent for a while and sees Keegan leaving them without waiting for a reply. Sophie was also somewhat surprised to hear Keegan say that. When Keegan disappears from their sight, Sophie somewhat frantically looks at Ava.
“Why do I feel Keegan seems to know that you are not showing your true abilities.” Sophie turned her eyes feeling somewhat surprised at Keegan's question.
Ava was also somewhat surprised to hear Keegan so. “Entailah, but it seems that Keegan's representative felt that I did not fully exert my abilities. He is also a man who can dance and sing. So I guess he must know.”
“Then what do you think, will you be fine ?” Sophie was a little worried.
Ava could only sigh long. “Should be fine. I have to work hard next time and act more natural.”
Sophie can only trust Ava, though she desperately wants Ava to debut with her, but she also knows the industry is very dangerous if they don't have a strong background. It would definitely be very troublesome for him or Ava herself if it came to a problem with a stronger person.

Vivian returned to her dorm room in a very happy mood. Because he can get the center position, so surely he will get the main spotlight. He would be famous in an instant.
Vivian lay in her bed talking to her roommate. He builds relationships with other trainees and builds a good image with other trainees.
“According to you what kind of mission we will get after this ?” ask a girl from a bed down named Clarence. She was a trainee from C class, as she had a bit of trouble memorizing koreo and difficulty coping with high-pitched songs. He is basically a rapper.
Vivian who was on the mattress in Clarence's bag stuck her head down. “Once you go, but obviously maybe this will be a tough competition after this.” Vivian said so but in fact she already knew about the next mission. He had already thought of the plan for this mission from yesterday.
The next mission is about group battle. They will be split into groups and one song will have two groups competing against each other. The problem is that not every team can get the groups and songs they want, so it will be difficult to be able to adapt to the members of one group.
But he as a center can benefit from choosing his own group members which is a fortune. The rest, the person who chooses will be chosen by lottery, so it all depends on the luck of each participant.
Vivian herself has chosen the person who will be her team and intends to make a solid team in order to win. When she was thinking about how she should do what later, she remembered Ava.
To be honest he did not really intend to include Ava into his team because Ava has the potential to seize his center position. So he intends to make Ava his opponent while in the song selection. Now he just needs to arrange for Ava to get a teammate who can't really threaten her.
“To be honest I suddenly felt scared when I thought of the selection center back then.” Vivian suddenly discussed this expressing her fear in a depressed tone.
The other girls in the room suddenly fell silent and became focused on hearing Vivian's words.
“But in my opinion, you were very good at that time, seeing your abilities and aura more suitable for the theme song than the other three candidates.” Another girl tried to comfort Vivian who felt inferior.
“At that time I thought that the other two people were really great, they had a lot of great potential to be the center especially because they look so well suited to a lot of genres when viewed.” Vivian frowned feeling extremely inferior. “Even I had a chance to see Ava wearing a uniform that made her look very elegant and today she looks very sporty with other uniforms.”
“But I must admit that Ava is indeed very beautiful, she is too beautiful for a human being.” Clarence seemed to admire Ava as well.
“Ava does look very prominent, she does have the potential to be very famous once this show is broadcast.” Another girl added. She was indeed so beautiful that many other girls felt very inferior with their own looks.
“But in my opinion even though she is beautiful, she is a bit cold for someone who wants to be an artist.” Katty, a somewhat supple girl, finds it a bit difficult to get along with the cold Ava.
“Indeed, I once asked her to get acquainted, but she didn't seem to respond to me.” Seeing the potential to add comments about Ava, Vivian did not miss it.
“Really ?! He did not respond to ?” Clarence was a bit surprised, Ava seemed to be arrogant.
“It's not hard to cooperate with such a person right ? I hope not to cooperate with people who are even difficult to meet.” Katty is a bit disappointed with Ava who turns out to be treating people like that too.
Everyone who heard Vivian's story had the same opinion as her. Out of nowhere the rumor that Ava is a proud and condescending person starts spreading tonight.
Some people who knew Ava before felt that Ava's attitude was indeed rather unpleasant, she looked cold and difficult to approach. But some people who roomed with Ava didn't feel that way.
For them, Ava was a person of considerable concern, she woke them up every day and understood their difficulties when not saying so. Especially Crystal who had the flu while training because of exposure to cold air.
Ava helps him prepare the medicine and tells him to take the medicine every day with the warm water that Ava somehow always gets.
So the opinions of trainees are very different and divided into different opinions. Even so, the person on the topic did not react and just did his activities as usual and did not talk or comment much about it. Ava even behaved very much in bodo time and behaved like she was in her own box.
Sophie is a little worried because there are bad rumors about Ava, she comes to Ava because she is worried.
“Didn't you hear about the rumors circulating ?” sophie asked in a whisper. “Yesterday there are no rumors like this, why now there are such rumors.”
“Entahlah.” Ava replied while eating her food. “I didn't really hear that rumor.”
Sophie was a little frustrated with Ava not believing. “Ava, you have to be serious about rumors like this, you know that bad rumors will definitely have a bad impact.”
Ava stopped her food and looked at Sophie flatly. “You think I care about that?”
“But in the entertainment industry of course such a thing cannot be underestimated.” Sophie tried to explain to Ava to better understand her point.
“Of course I know, but you know for yourself it's just a rumor and you know how I am Sophie. I don't need anyone else thinking too much about me.” Ava explained in a low voice. “Let them.”
Sophie could only sigh feeling Ava was a bit difficult to persuade. But for a few years he's been talking about Ava, and he doesn't really care what other people say. But he was always worried about her.
